Privacy Policy

1. Scope and website services

Shadowrocket Q&A — Official Manual is the official website and manual for Shadowrocket. It provides guidance on verifying the official app, purchasing and installing it, importing existing configurations, and using the app. This policy applies to this website. It does not replace the app's in-app privacy information or Apple's rules for store accounts and transactions.

This is a static content website. It has no registration, email subscription, or comment forms, and does not ask visitors to submit their name, email address, or payment information. This site does not provide proxy services. Configuration guidance assumes that users already have their own subscription or server details. A one-time purchase of the app does not include a service plan.

2. Access logs and analytics

When you open a page, your browser sends a request to the website's hosting service. To deliver pages, troubleshoot issues, and keep the site running, the server may log your IP address, request time, page path, response status, and browser request headers. What is logged depends on the hosting configuration in use. These logs should not be taken to mean that this site can access other data on your device.

This site uses analytics to understand how pages are read, which device categories visitors use, where visits come from, and whether visitors actively click the App Store button. This helps improve content organization and navigation. A recorded click only indicates that a link was followed; it does not confirm a purchase. This site does not use analytics to access Shadowrocket connection logs, subscription details, or in-app traffic.

Operational logs and aggregated analytics are used to maintain the website and analyze content. This policy does not promise a fixed retention period that has not been verified. Access logs and browser storage are separate; clearing browser data does not automatically delete records already created on the server.

3. Cookies and local storage

You do not need a login cookie to read the official manual. Whether analytics use cookies or similar browser identifiers depends on the analytics configuration in use. If enabled, these identifiers help associate visits and distinguish browsing sessions. They are not used to store account passwords, payment details, or subscription credentials on this site.

Interactions such as expanding navigation and jumping to a section can take place on the current page. If local storage is used to remember reading preferences, it should contain only information needed for that feature. You can view, restrict, or clear this site's cookies and website data in your browser settings. After clearing them, you may need to choose your preferences again. If your browser blocks analytics requests, you can still read the main guidance.

4. External App Store links

The only way to get Shadowrocket is through its App Store product page. Apple operates that page. Once you leave this site, page access, account verification, purchases, payments, and refunds are subject to Apple's terms and privacy policies.

This site does not receive payment information, purchase receipts, or Apple Account passwords, and cannot confirm a transaction from a click on the App Store button. Check the developer name, Shadow Launch Technology Limited, the official app icon, and app ID 932747118 on the product page. Device compatibility, system requirements, and purchase eligibility are as stated on the App Store page.

5. Personal information and help

You do not need to upload configuration files to read tutorials. Do not post complete subscription links, server passwords, QR codes, or screenshots containing credentials in public places. Do not replace tutorial examples with real credentials that are publicly visible. This site explains how to use the app; it does not host or store personal configurations.

For help with importing, permissions, or connection issues, first read the user guide and check the actual interface in the app. Browser privacy controls can manage this site's storage and analytics requests, but do not change how Apple or services you already use handle data.

6. Policy updates

This policy may be updated when the website's features, analytics configuration, or data practices change. Revisions will be published on this page, and the last-updated month at the top will be revised. If new data collection or a change in purpose is introduced, it should be explained before the relevant feature is enabled. Any processing that requires consent will follow the notices and choices applicable at that time. We recommend reviewing this page before using new features.
